Mavis Fenric Pt. 25

Mavis paced the room of her apartment, trying to make head or tails of this new information about her former employers.

The Cursed Bloods. A rogue military company that went AWOL several years ago due to unknown reasons. The file she got from her contact practically told her nothing about them. Almost every word in every sentence was covered in black ink. The entire file about them was covered in black ink.

Mavis: Fuck, what did these guys do to make them such a massive security threat?

Clint: I don't know, I'm just as lost as you are.

Mavis: Shut up, no one asked you.

Clint: Are you still made about it?

Mavis: Of course I'm still made about it. Those bastard knocked me up with your sperm just to spy on a former pregnant soldier, and for what? Not to mention they said they would take the brat after they were born, but they decided to kill me once Mary went back to the Wolves.

Clint: I'm... not sure on that either.

Mavis: This doesn't make sense. This seems like revenge, but why get me pregnant?

Mavis ponders about her conundrum for a moment, thinking how any of this fits together logically.

Cursed Bloods. Grey Wolves. Arch enemies. They fight. Cursed Bloods die. Super Soldier serum. Getting me pregnant with a 2nd gen. Try to kill me.

...

Mavis: I got it!

Clint: Huh?

Mavis: I need to make a call. Stay there.

Clint looks at his restraints, deadpanned at Mavis.

Clint: Seriously?

Mavis pulls out a burner phone and calls private number. She waits as the ring of the phone fill her ear. She begins to tap her foot impatiently as the connection takes too long.

Mavis: Come on, come on. Pick up Marshall.

Jane: (The phone connects and a voice comes through the line) Hello?

Mavis: In the shadows of the night...

Jane: Evil becomes my prey. Mavis, it's good to hear your voice again, but why are you calling me?

Mavis: Listen Jane, I need you to do something for me. I need you to get to the artic and check on the SS serum center, it's in danger of an attack.

Jane: Mavis, (Her voice becomes hushed as the sound of her walking away from a commotion can be hard in the distance) How did you know there was an attack of the SS Center? It just happened.

Mavis freezes in place, feeling her blood turn to ice.

Mavis: What?

Jane: Mavis... ugh, we need to meet.

Mavis: Agreed. Same place?

Jane: I'll meet you in 24 hours.

She hangs up the phone. She rubs her temples, feeling the situation go from 5 to a 100 in the span of a second.

Clint: What's wrong?

Mavis turned to him and frowned.

Mavis: The place that makes the SS serum... it was just attacked.
